Tarot by HHOriginally by Satina:- I guess I was coming from the place of feeling that sometimes we are of much more worth to someone than [b]we[/b] know I charge a sliding scale for my Reiki/Metaphysical Counseling, of $60, $75, or $90, whichever the client feels they can afford I'm also open to barter [/quote] A sliding scale fee system based upon what the client can affort, is at least semantically, a different proposition than asking for donation based upon what the client thinks:- you are worth I was not recommend rigidity in fee schedules In point of fact a large portion of my regular clientele is barter-based I also offer buy-ten-get-one-free, as well as recommend a friend for a discount And rather than giving up altogether, I felt this was a compromise that might lead to less tension about the first reading [/quote] However the post that indicated the reader was "bowing out" said nothing about being uncomfortable with setting a fee, but rather a reluctance to investigate the legalities of doing readings Ultimately we each have to decide for ourselves [/quote] You are right One of the things that makes forums such as this interesting in the many opinions that are shared It's in the cards!
